Takings, suppliers and wages — said once, posted properly.

Daily cash, a dozen small suppliers, and wages that never line up with the till roll.

Questions restaurants, cafés and takeaways ask
- Can I record the whole day at once?
- Yes. One message for takings is enough, and you can still break it down if you want to.
- What about lots of small suppliers?
- Each one is a named account with its own balance, created the first time you mention them.
- Does it handle tax on sales?
- Turn it on and tax is posted to its own account, on top of the sale, never folded into it.
